The BJP alleged on Tuesday that the ruling AAP tabled a decision in the Delhi Assembly simply because the Pakistan authorities had introduced a decision towards the Government of India in its parliament.
The Arvind Kejriwal authorities is working in a “dictatorial and unconstitutional method” in the Assembly and AAP MLAs “spoke in the language of Pakistan”, it charged.
Brushing apart all guidelines and traditions, subjects that don’t pertain to Delhi are being mentioned, Leader of Opposition in the Assembly Ramvir Singh Bidhuri alleged in a press convention.
The Delhi Assembly held a short-duration dialogue on “monetary loss to Union Government exchequer and public on account of a non-public firm and no enquiry being performed by Union authorities in this regard.” At the end of the discussion, the Assembly, dominated by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), passed a resolution tabled by party MLA Sanjiv Jha demanding that a message be sent from the Assembly to Parliament for considering a joint parliamentary committee (JPC) probe into the Adani issue.
During the discussion, several AAP MLAs, including Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, mounted no-holds-barred attacks on the prime minister levelling allegations against him in connection with the Adani issue.
Bidhuri said an attempt was made for holding the discussion in the beginning of the session, but Speaker Ram Niwas Goel dropped it following opposition from BJP legislators.
According to rule no. 61.9 of the Rules of the Legislative Assembly, only those topics can be discussed in the Legislative Assembly on priority basis which are concerned with the Delhi government, he said.
“However, today again a similar topic was discussed in a deliberate violation of the rules. The resolution was presented in the Assembly by the AAP like the Pakistan government had presented a resolution against India and AAP MLAs also spoke in the language of Pakistan,” Bidhuri alleged.
Pakistan’s nationwide meeting had handed a decision towards India in February 2020 over revoking of particular standing of Jammu and Kashmir.
Bidhuri stated the BJP MLAs will take up this “unconstitutional and anti-national act” of the Delhi assembly with the President of India.
As the BJP legislators protested over a reference made by AAP MLA to an Al Jazeera report, the speaker tried to pacify them by saying that the media house had nothing to do with Pakistan.
Bidhuri alleged that the AAP MLAs used “indecent and derogatory” language towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi and levelled “objectionable and baseless allegations” against the central government like “promoting drugs and global terrorism”.
The BJP MLAs additionally identified to the speaker that they’d given notices to debate the issues of Delhi, however he didn’t hearken to them, Bidhuri stated.
